Square Enix to talk future Final Fantasy XIII plans in September

Next to it being linear, I don't see why people nag so much about FF XIII. It was a great game, the battle system was on point with a hint of complexity, story was likeable, and I've always had that sense of getting more and more powerful. It being linear didn't detract from anything. I'm just starting FFXIII-2, and so far it's just as good, or better than it's prequel.

Versus! 

If there's a FF that deserves a sequel or remake in current or next gen consoles  that's FF VII - the most memorable and rich final fantasy game, with the best characters, story, battle system, music, etc...Try to imagine FF XIII on a PS1, it would be like running in corridors and auto battle system with a linear storyline.I think Square Enix is going the wrong direction in the FF series but I hope FF XV changes that.

Listen up all you unappreciates - SE has revolutionized the realm of RPGs over and over and over. Yet all some people do is whine because you can't appreciate SE doing something new - in an attempt to give you a better gaming experience no less.. You people must SUCK at relationships if all you do is focus on what you don't like about something AWESOME.

Why revisit the old games in HD? Why touch the Mona Lisa and say 'Hey Da Vinci! It was good back when you painted it but we're going to redo it in higher definition...'

With all the respect you deserve, PLEASE....you nay-sayers...stop playing FF games, and leave your shallow minded opinions of a revolutionary, industry leading team where they belong - closed up in your homes :)

SE, thank you for all you do.

Yeah, I've been playing FF since the NES and I'm just tired of it. Toriyama just needs to either step down or get fired. He drove FF into the ground with 13, and now it's to the point I'm not sure it can recover in time to make another great game. They spent too much time and money developing that engine, which is the reason we keep getting 13 sequels. His idea for half naked 13 yr old girls being mainstream heroes just makes him look like a perv.

 I have no problem wanting to have lightning as a main, but it can't be just her, he's just way too obsessed with Lightning and she's not that great of a character. There needs to be a decent sized cast, and this battle system needs major improvement, it's just way too easy. The series does have potential to be great, but sadly it failed. 

No way. The weakest FF in terms of pretty much everything, especially story and characters, and they won't kill it? I'm never touching another FF game again.

first off square probably keeps making ff13 games so they can wait till ps4 to come out then bring out versus on a more powerful system to better the game graphic and add more to it. so they making sequel to 13 so they can stall for versus, well that what I that might just be going on here.

Why is the worst flipping FF still ongoing. 13 is garbage, it shouldnt have been made , let alone a sequel, and now another one.

I hope the new FF is connected  to FINAL FANTASY 8 continuing the story ...omg i remember those days ..it is great  Squall Leonhart & Rinoa Heartilly ...

Lightning is great character hope it will be in next FF maybe other other funny male  character suite here 

if VS 13 is cancelled, then i wash my hands to Square Enix.

im done

Final Fantasy XIII-3?

I just really wish they would revisit and upgrade the graphics and audio of FF VII to XII for the next gen consoles. They were great games with a huge fan following and to have them released on the Xbox 360 and PS3 and PC would be a sure money maker for SE!

They already have the characters and storylines of the established world renowned games, which have stood the test of time, so an updated re release on all platforms is really a no brainer as far as profits go.

I know I would buy them all again because the big advantage would be that I already know I like them and would play them again, so I'm sure I'm not the only one?

There was an atmosphere of excitement in the earlier games which is somehow missing from the recent releases in the franchise?

I just hope they make it linear like the first XIII. Serriously, that time thingy and the conversation choices never added anything to the game. It just made the dialogues meaningless.

FF XIII was the best FF I've ever played (I like lazy rpg with lots of blah blah) and I've only played 5 hours of FF XIII-2, got stuck not knowing where to go next, then got bored. I guess I'll have to get through to be up to date with the story though.

Didn't mind 13-2, glad now that I missed out on the crystal edition though that would have been a waste of money. As long as 13-3 doesn't make you buy dlc I'll be happy. I still trust square too much so I will be buying 13-3 but hmmm... was desperate for versus :( it'd better not be cancelled it wasn't long ago it was finally at '100% development'!?

I think that they should just make Versus into FF15 or smth, because the FF13 name has been.... brought down.

you people need to get over yourselves, and assuming that they will move faster than needed just to give you less!!??.....they are trying to give you the best but first they are waiting for technology to get moving up to where they want to start making these games on higher graphics gaming console!....So Shut up and please be patient! The world is not ending! They have something planned just wait for it they wont dissapoint you so stop assuming they will.

AWESOME YES!!!!I love Lightning....hopefully a better ending an where vanille an fang wake up again! >.<

As for final fantasy versus the only reason it is taking so long that you people havent got into your thick skulls is because how much they wanted to advance the graphics and cant reach their desired animation till the playstation 4 or later....the ps3 has limited amount of space for such graphics...and for higher graphics they need a better gaming platform!!

I'm still mad at myself for preordering XIII-2. No way I'll make that mistake again with XIII-3. It's gonna have to get some spectacular reviews for me to consider buying it, and even then it's pretty iffy.

Would have loved to get my hands on Versus, but I guess SE decided they'd rather keep churning out crappy sequels than work on something original.

I liked FFXIII, but even I haven't got round to getting FFXIII-2.

"The event will be called "Final Fantasy XIII Lightning Saga: New Developments Presentation""

REALLY hope that this isn't going to be about a XIII-3. If so then I'm really done with the series. 

I have never played a FF game, ever. I would like to give it a try but everybody is ripping on the 13 series, hope this one will be better so I can buy that stuff!
